If u newbies out there don`t know how to play this game look at these tips i made up that turned out useful.
1.) Research Housing, Commerical,Etc. till u h=get an output of 100% besides the 200%
2.) look for newplanets to colonize and make sure they can generate alot by adding mining, agriculture, industry, and housing and you get alot of money and resources.
3.) Build fleets only and i mean ONLY if you need to get Slave empires once your done disband your fleet so you can stay elow the 5000 for protection. (Warning!: It will drain your money like a toilet!)
4.) Sell useless suplies on the market and sure enough you may get money or get nothing at all.
5.) Rewared your slave empires so they may stay in your Empire but ask first!
6.)Joining a Federation may save your butt they can help you Federation amdins are veterans of this game so ask them for help if you need it!
7.)what ever you do DON`T RESTART it just messes up your chances of winning and us eit if your can`t repay your debt even though it is easy just research anything and you`ll get back on track.

I hope these tips are helpgul! :)

[quote]build 30 housing on your baseworld and fill the rest with commercial[/quote]

that should be 50 housing. otherwise you won`t have enough labour to utilise all the land...

How about this....

KingHippie, aka KottonmouthKing`s tips

newbies start as terran sooo

Reasearch 20 levels of commercial.
build 30 housing on your baseworld and fill the rest with commercial
then start to reasearch ships, once you have most of them reasearched, start exploring.
get 2 or 3 barren`s of 800+ land, then drop back below 5k pr.
Build their commercial up after you get the population done.
then delete the housing on your barrens and homeworld, this will eliminate the need for food, and you will still make money. be sure to delete the agri. on the homeworld and build more commercial before doing this.
reasearch the rest of your ships and commercial up to level 50 or so, this will take some time, but will get you alot of money.
after that, begin fighting at the lower powers until you have a good grasp of stacking and how the battles work.
After that, get more 800+ barrens and cluster them, and begin fighting higher and higher, and be sure to continue your commercial reasearch.

Sorry to break it you but some of these don`t even make sense. Exporing for planets raises your pr. So it would be pretty hard to stay below 5k and get a decent income. And newbies shouldn`t be enslaving. They should learn the basics. And restarting isn`t bad it gives you a second chance. Maybe you should play a little longer before you start giving out tips. =D>
